The population of natives and legal immigrants can be measured using census data. How do they count the total number of undocumented immigrants?

I think they're counting undocumented crimes *vs the whole population to deflate the number of the crime rate, as opposed to comparing it internally.
Is it illogical to think of it that way or the inverse?
